My favorite from Slashdot was “When I was in grade school, we didn’t have neutrons, and we had to turn the electrons by hand to keep them spinning.”

Hey Joe,
Well I read so many variations on this theme on Slashdot that I thought I’d invent one myself. And I’m pretty happy about it. It’s got a nice flow with all those ‘b’ words, don’t you think?

Yours is much better though, and thanks for the link! Thought all that stuff was just contemporary Slashdot stuff. I need to get me some filk albums.

I think the phrase you were looking for is

“We programmed in ones and in zeros
and sometimes we ran out of ones”

from Frank Hayes’ “When I was a boy”
